| Diagnostic test performed |
- The percentage of diagnostic tests completed by the student before learning modules. In the ALP, diagnostic tests are referred to as Determine Knowledge operation.
- A proxy for Self-awareness (conscientiousness) and effective learning strategy (i.e., using the Determine Knowledge operation to guide the learning process).
|
| Knowledge state |
- The average achievement that students accomplish in a module via assessment exercises.
- An outcome measure that will indirectly impact other variables in relation to SRL contextualization (e.g., self-awareness, engagement, and effort/motivation).
|
| Knowledge covered |
- The percentage of topics (topics’ entire content) completed for the course modules. Content within a topic could include a variety of instructional resources, such as text, animations, practice tests, case studies, assignments, postings, and discussions. If students cover all topic activities related to a module within the ALP, the system documents 100% for percentage of topics completed.
- A proxy for students’ engagement with the ALP course content.
|
| Completed objectives |
- Percentage of learning objectives completed, regardless of the due date.
- A proxy for self-monitoring (conscientiousness) and organization (time management skills).
|
| Timely completed objectives |
Percentage of learning objectives completed before the due date.
- A proxy for self-monitoring and organization (more mature time organization strategies).
|
| Number of practice operations |
Total number of assessment questions at the objective level with a recorded value, independent of those where students practiced initially during their first exposure to the learning modules.
- A proxy for effort (persistent behavior) or effective learning strategy (following the ALP algorithmic suggestions to practice more).
|
| Number of revisions |
Total of the revised operations with a recorded value for which student’s returned to previously completed lessons and assessments questions.
- A proxy for effort/motivation (persistent behavior) or effective learning strategy (following the ALP algorithmic suggestions to perform more revision).
|
| Number of lessons |
- Number of lessons on new learning objectives that were started by the student.
- A proxy for engagement or effective learning strategy (i.e., using the Determine Knowledge operation to provide targeted content).
|
| Total activities |
- Total number of lessons that were started, along with practice and determine knowledge operations.
- An encompassing proxy for engagement with the ALP course content.
|
| Average score |
- Average score for the contributing activities, from lessons or assessment operations.
- An outcome measure that will indirectly impact other variables in relation to SRL contextualization (e.g., self-awareness, engagement, and effort/motivation)
|
| Improvement after activities |
- Percentage of recorded activities that led to an improvement (i.e., lessons that demonstrated growth/increase in student’s knowledge state level.
- A proxy for effective learning strategy or productive struggle.
|
| Number of assessments |
- Number of questions that were accessed, attempted and/or completed by the student.
- A proxy for engagement and effort.
|
| Correctly answered assessments |
Percentage of questions that were marked correct.
- A proxy for engagement.
|
| Incorrectly answered assessments |
- Percentage of questions where the provided answers were wrong, incomplete, or for which no answer was supplied.
- A proxy for effort (persistent behavior).
|
| Total time |
- Total number of minutes that were spent in lessons or practice/determined knowledge operations.
- A proxy for engagement with the ALP course content.
